If this is your new assignment, monitor the blog, boy you will have your hands full. Years before posting anything I watched the words fly fast and furious. Then a posting rules update occured last year........same ole same ole endmrw0310191254

If you look closely, I think you’ll see that it didn’t come in an e-mail. It probably came in a PRIVATE MESSAGE, one meant to be private between you and the other forum member.Whistling

 

 

It came to me in my email. Every now and then , I receive in my email something which is obviously a post that does not appear in the thread on my computer.

Did the "mystery" post you got, ever appear public?

 

Exactly what happened to me. I had two emails. One on the private email (it is noted as such). Next was an alert to a new public posting. When this was done I have the text shown w/o going to the forum. I copied that. Who knows it might appear public later on.

 

But I sure agree this bickering needs to stop, but guess who keeps piling on.

 

Thanks for the confirmation of what happened to me happened to you  endmrw0312181021

Until a couple of months ago, I would receive an e-mail whenever I was addressed on a PM.  The e-mail would contain the contents of the post that was the PM.  This stopped a couple of months ago.

I last received a PM a month ago today--and it was in my email as well as in the proper place.

Balt, have you received such in the last month and were not notified in your email?

I recieved PM's 2/5 and 2/13 and neither had e-mails.

No.  It was supposed to be a public post.  I know what happened but I would be unwise to say.
